Information regarding the right of withdrawal

Statutory right to withdraw

You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.

Effects of withdrawal

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Plunder and Salvage, 101 Airstrip Road, #379, 27948, Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

Exceptions to the right of withdrawal

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:

1. The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
2. The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.

U. S. domestic shipping costs are based on books weighing up to one kilogram (2.2 pounds) and shipped via USPS Media Mail. Book orders exceeding 2.2 pounds (one kilogram) and multi-volume sets may require additional postage. Non-book orders (ephemera, maps, prints) do not qualify for USPS Media Mail and will be delivered via USPS Ground Advantage or Priority Mail. Non-book orders may also require additional postage. We will contact you if additional funds are necessary to fulfill your order. We will also combine multiple items into a single order to reduce buyer costs whenever possible. All international shipping costs quoted herein are estimates only. Contact us for a specific shipping quote based on the item(s) you are interested in purchasing, your ship-to location, and your preferred method of delivery. While we generally ship via USPS worldwide where available, we will quote DHL, FedEx, and UPS upon request. International buyers are responsible for country-specific taxes (Value Added Tax or VAT) and any additional costs resulting from receipt of materials in countries outside the United States. Contact us if you have questions. We appreciate your business.
